Infuse your gin, sure. Infuse your tonic, why not. But what about the ice?
Yield: 1 drink
To make 1 tray of Spiced Ice Cubes:
1 sliced habanero pepper
3 cups water
3 cups sugar
8 Saffron threads, crumbled
Combine all ingredients in a small saucepan and bring to the boiling point. Stir until sugar is dissolved, about five minutes. Allow to cool, then remove the pepper and pour into ice cube tray. Freeze until solid.
To make one drink:
2 ounces gin (Old Raj suggested - it is infused with saffron; or substitute your favorite gin)
4 ounces tonic
4 Spiced Ice Cubes
Pour gin and tonic over 4 "spiced ice" cubes in a tall glass and stir. Serve with a colorful swizzle stick.
